The War on Christmas in Our Schools

A distressing trend in the United States

Throughout America, a saddening trend has grown to ban Christmas carols and concerts in our public schools during the Christmas—excuse me—“holiday season.”

The “official reason” is that a Christmas song violates the “separation of church and state.”

But this is false. No court should find it a problem. The Supreme Court has ruled that if there is no danger of a government-established religion, it’s not a constitutional issue.

In California, we even have specific statutes that allow teachers to use or reference religious material when it’s educationally appropriate.
